Tottenham 2 Roma 3: Tempers fray as Mauricio Pochettino's men suffer defeat in New York

The Spurs boss became embroiled in a lengthy argument with the fourth official in the second half as tempers boiled over at Red Bull Arena.

It was a tetchy affair which exploded after the break when a frustrated Harry Kane took out Roma’s Kostas Manolas.

Players from both sides came together and the Argentine looked to have been sent off yet he stood firm and was allowed to stay on the bench.

From there he saw a dramatic ending to the match which saw a disappointing Spurs side score twice at the death through Harry Winks and Vincent Janssen to cancel out Roma's deserved two-goal lead before Marco Tumminello went straight up the other end to stun Spurs fans still celebrating the leveller.

Mauricio Pochettino lost his cool during Tottenham's International Champions Cup defeat to Roma

“Tottenham went down 3-2 to Roma in New York”

Kane had his moments and twice went close but Dele Alli and fellow creative spark Mousa Dembele, who smacked the bar in the first half, were both disappointing and never got going.

Roma were deservedly ahead after just 12 minutes when Perotti rolled home a penalty after youngster Cameron Carter-Vickers , 19, handled in the box.

Ref Hilario Grajeda didn’t give it at first but after the linesman gave him the nod, Perotti did the rest.

Kane went close late on before Dembele hit the bar but it was a 45 minutes to forget for the strong Spurs contingent.
